Parishes across Ireland to mark canonisation of 'the patron saint of PlayStation' in April

From April, Carlo Acutis will go down in history as the world’s first millennial saint.

Plans are underway in Ireland to mark the canonisation of a young gamer affectionately dubbed “the patron saint of PlayStation".

In the past year, the primary relic of Carlo Acutis, who died from leukaemia back in 2006, has made a number of visits to dioceses in Ireland from Assisi.
